degree of public approval, but it does not fol-
low that they furnish basis for new party
organization or that they can be best pro-
NOTED in that way. There is really no neces-
sity of new party to advocate these ideas;
let them be grated on one of the existing
parties Let their advocates seek by selection
the party that most nearly represents the
ideas they wish to advance and secure their
adoption by that party. The Republican
party is fully abreast of public sentiment in
this regard and is already by far the best
exponent and representative of American
ideas the country has ever had. The conven-
ton that met in Philadelphia yesterday can
DO nothing towards advancing and promoting
true American ideas that could not be better
and more effectively done by and through the
Republican party.

AN IRISH EDITORS VIEWS.
What Mr.. John De Voy Thinks of the Tory
Party's Movements in England.

Among the prominent persons arriving in the
the city yesterday was Mr.. John De Voy, the
editor of the Irish Nation, who is stopping tenn
porarily at the Occidental Hotel He has be-
come known all through America by his advo
cacy of the Irish cause. He is of the opinion
that there is something back of the present
movements of the Tory party in Eng
land in the way of coercion, that
is darker than the mere menacing
of the Irish people in order to awe them into
quiet submission He says that his belief Is
that the party will enforce the coercion act with
the utmost rigor, hoping thereby to excite toe
Irish .enantry to open rebellion. at least to
SO infuriate them to begct acts of violence.
If this can be done, they hope that it will arouse
all of the ancient race feeling until it shall
plant the liberal and humane feeling which has
been SO rapidly developing in England under
the appeals of Mr.. Gladstone and other able
speakers, and unite the English in the de-
termination to maintain the tyranny which
has so long cursed the Emerald Isle. Mr.. De
Voy, however. has fears that they will sue
coed in this design. He feels that the Irish
cause is gaining ground rapidly in England, and
is certain that it is unfying Ireland. IL the
contest can only be restricted exclusively to the
ballot box it will be but question of time. and
short time at that. until Ireland will be ruled at
home.

SULLIVAN, HARRISON AND FLETCHER.

John E. Sullivan, as the central figure of
the Marion county ring, not only holds a
mortgage on Sim Coy's saloon, but also upon
DR.. Harrison's character. Mr.. Sullivan has
essayed many roles. He is known to have
secured the passage of the Brown bill because
the Fishb board refused to accept his oleo-
margarine as frst-class creamery butter. Mr..
Sullivan was also successful in installing
CDR" Harrison as Mr.. Fishback's successor,
and in securing from the present board the
payment of his rejected claim of $476. 20.
Under the present administration Mr.. Sulli-
van has been a regular beneficiary of the
hospital contract system. With the character
of articles furnished the State by Mr. Sulli-
van the public is familiar. The offices of DR..
Harrison in the business have been kindly

THE latest project for piping natural gas to
Indianapolis is exciting considerable attention.
1t is at least departure from the policy of
inaction and delay on which the public has
been fed for some months. The public is
ready to welcome anything that looks like
business. As for the new project, which for
defniteness we may call the Doxey plan,
there may be great deal or very little in it.
All depends on the amount of popular support
and backing it receives. There is nothing
intrinsically impossible or fallacious in the
scheme; the difficulty is in getting the
requisite amount Of popular support. IF a
sufficient number of people are willing to
pledge their patronage and enter into condi-
tional contracts, these pledges and guarantees
will form basis on which the projectors of
the enterprise can safely undertake to pipe
gas. The movement in it's present stage,
therefore, is experimental, the object being to
see what amount of popular support and
patronage can be secured in advance. The
provisional contract which consumers are
asked to sign needs to be amended at least in
one important particular Is specifies no time
or limit within which the new company obli-
gates itself to have gas within the city. This
point should be covered, otherwise consumers
would be binding themselves by a contract of
indefinite duration. A date should be fixed
by which time if the companys pipe lines
have not reached the city the contract shall

five or eighty singers. To the left of the choir
is library and cioak-room that is accessible
from both the audience and lecture-rooms. The

is 35xSO feet and will easily seat 400 persons.
The tower when completed will measure 13C
feet high froEa the base, and being symmetrical
and stately will add much to the beauty of the

The afirmatory decision of the Illinois
Supreme Court is regarded as the highest
possible compliment to Judge Gary, of Chi
cago, who tried the anarchist cases. Not
withstanding the extraordinary difficulties
that surrounded the case, the efforts that were
made to entrap him and the length of the
trial. the record did not contain a single ma
terial error. The decision is great triumph
for Judge Gary, as well as for Justice.

Sanitary Inspectors.

Mayor Callaghan has ann ounoed to
the reporters that four of the eight SAM
tary inspectors to be appointed by him
as authorized by the city council, have
been appointed. The names of his APP
pOintees are as follows:
Capt. VIM. Lyons, e. F. Russi, Major
W. L. MeChling and Emil Oppermann.
Capt. Lyons Is an elderly man who is
supposed to have considerable influence
with the city administration or its
executive and also with the suffragans
who live near and about the Sunset de
pot. He was formerly policeman OF
the city and afterwards WAS iailer of
the county Jail, He will no doubt be as
signed to duty in his own ward, the
sixth.
Major Mechling is another old citizen
living in the Second ward. Not very
muuh is known about him, but it is sup
posed he has "inflooence."
Emil Oppermann will hold down the
fret ward very probably, as his resi-
dence Is In that ward. He was once be-
fore a sanitary officer, and has a pencil
ant for this office and for starting sani-
tary companies. The business will not
be new TO him.
Last, but not least, comes ex-street
commissioner and ex-recorder's clerk
and interpreter, Russi, who lives in the
third ward
Maybe the place will suit him, how
ever, and it does seem as If poor Russi,
who has been hustled about TO make
room for other faVorites, ought to be ac-
corded some sineoure and allowed TO
rest. He has been rewarded.
